RIFLE is chambered for, and designed to properly
function with, only the 22 caliber Long Rifle rimfire cartridge, standard, high
velocity, or hyper-velocity, manufactured to U.S. industry standards.
Do not use 22 short, 22 long, 22 shot, or 22 cartridges loaded with blunt-nosed,
sharp-shouldered, or “explosive” bullets. They will not function reliably and may
jam the mechanism or discharge before being fully chambered. Use only
ammunition that functions correctly in your rifle. See “Warning – Malfunctions,”
p. 18.
